And another murder the police are investigating is that of 32-year-old David Castillo. Last week, you heard his mother begging for any information about where he might be since he went missing on Thursday night. And while she was hoping that he'd be found alive, his body was discovered on Sunday at mile 3 on the George Price Highway. Now, it's up to the police to find out how he got there. Courtney Menzies has this story.

"If anybody out there knows or see my little Frisco, to please try help me find my little boy."
Joan Ramsey's tearful plea was answered - in the worst possible way - after her son 32-year-old David Castillo's body was found on Sunday near mile 3 on the George Price Highway with gunshot wounds. The body may have been laying there from August 12th, when Castillo was last seen, until Sunday, when a civilian alerted the police.

"The scene was then processed and by now, the post mortem should have been conducted to determine the cause of death. We know that Mr. Castillo's family was looking for him for the past 2 weeks, tireless. So, 1, finding the body brings part closure to them, now to determine what happened to him is where our investigators will come in. We were initially informed by the family that he received a phone call on the night that he disappeared, and since then, they haven't heard from him. So, we are hoping that something could help us to find out who may have lured him to his death."
And it was right before curfew while he was buying a gacho at a nearby shop when he got that call.
Joan Ramsey, Mother
"His house stays open for 3 days, his house is clean, he spread his bed and took off his tennis Infront of his bed and put on his slippers, so you know he was going to bed, because it was curfew, so he went to buy gacho at the gacho shop. The lady at the shop said that he got a phone call and he told the lady that he would come back right now. He never came back for his gacho."
And Ramsey has no idea why someone would target her son because she always knew him to be a caring and kind person.
Joan Ramsey, Mother
"He is a joy. If he cooks 2 pounds of rice, he makes sure everybody in this yard get to eat. He looks out for everybody. We can't say everybody is perfect, but he is a loving boy."
